NGOs challenge EU Commission’s Omnibus proposal
"This reckless move not only weakens sustainability rules but also damages public trust in the EU’s democratic foundations."
A group of NGOs has lodged an official complaint with the EU’s institutional watchdog to challenge the European Commission’s Omnibus proposal, on the grounds that it was developed in an “undemocratic, untransparent and rushed way”.
In a complaint lodged with the European Ombudsman, the campaigners argue that not only does the Omnibus “water down” key sustainability regulations that were only recently adopted, but it has done so without proper consultation.
